BVB star Ryerson enjoys a beach holiday at the Sugar Hut in Rio!

Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilien - The BVB star Julian Rerson (27) currently enjoys a short vacation at the famous Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro. On his Instagram profile, he shared a picture that shows him with a drink in front of the impressive sugar hat mountain. This comes at a time when the preparations for the upcoming World Cup start in Dortmund on June 2.

In Brazil, his teammate Yan Couto (22) also spends a break, while other BVB players, such as Gregor Kobel, go on vacation in Greece and Ramy Bensebaini in Algeria. Another important topic about BVB is about Karim Adeyemi (23), who plans to extend his contract prematurely. This is currently running until 2027. An early extension could prove to be sensible, since Adeyemi was in demand last season with several clubs, including Juventus Turin.

talent in search of playing time

While Ryserson and Adeyemi make some headlines, the three talents Kjell Wätjen, Almugera Kabar and Cole Campbell have received new professional contracts, but only seen a little time under the new head coach Niko Kovač. Under the former coach Nuri Şahin, they were used more often, which now leads to consideration of considering a loan for the next few months. Several clubs from the 1st and 2nd league have already signaled interest in the trio.

A decision about the sporting future of young players is expected in the coming weeks, ideally before the club World Cup in America.

partnership with Evonik extended

Apart from the sporting activities, there are also significant news from BVB's management. Borussia Dortmund extended his partnership with Evonik. After almost 20 years, the chemical company becomes a "Champion Partner" of BVB as a jersey sponsor. Norbert Ness, Head of Strategic Communication at Evonik, underlined the long duration of the cooperation and the positive experiences of both sides.

BVB managing director Carsten Cramer emphasized the trust and successful development of the partnership, which has been created for the next five years. The cooperation will concentrate on sustainability and health in the future. Evonik, with its headquarters in Essen and over 100 countries, achieved impressive sales of 15.2 billion euros in 2024 and employs around 32,000 people.

These developments show the ambitious BVB plans both on and next to the field, while the players are preparing for important challenges and at the same time strengthened the positive partnerships.
